Lee Fields: My World Vinyl LP
Original 2009 Lab review:
Lee Fields, an original descendant of the James Brown school of funk leaders, is back again with the Truth & Soul players in the pocket. This is his third album with modern funk players (ie. Desco, then Soul Fire), and collects several songs that were previously released on bestselling 7"s and fills out the rest with an equally impressive group of new productions. My picks: The laidback, soulful groove of the title track is a throwback to the 70s soul era. "Love Comes And Goes" hits in all the right places: slow, smoky and broken hearted. There's no missing with the funky ode to the beautiful women out there, "Ladies." "The Only One Loving You" comes on strong, adding strings to the mix and some seriously pained vocals. With its impeccable production and reverence for vintage sounds, this is some of the best sounding modern soul to come out in recent years. All the way down to its great album photography, the album almost fools you into believing you've just thrown on a reissue. 11 tracks in all, recommended.
